Get Started

Learn how to authenticate and start using the Glint Solar API.

Enable API Access

To use the APIs an Organization Admin has to enable it.

1. As an organization admin, log in to your Glint Solar account
2. Navigate to Company Settings → Integrations → API Access
3. Enable API Access

Authentication

The Glint Solar API uses Personal Access Tokens (PAT) for authentication. Include your token in the X-API-Key header with every request. The Personal Access Token is tied to your user, and gives you access to everything your user has access to.

Creating a Personal Access Token

1. Log in to your Glint Solar account
2. Navigate to My Settings → Security → Personal Access Tokens
3. Click "Create New Token"
4. Give your token a descriptive name
5. Copy the token immediately — it won't be shown again

Token Security

• Treat your token like you would a password
• Never share your token or commit it to version control
• Use environment variables to store tokens
• Set an expiry date on the token, and rotate tokens periodically
• Delete tokens you no longer need

Verify Your Setup

To verify that your API access is working, try listing your organizations:

curl -X GET "https://api.glintsolar.com/organizations/v1" \
  -H "X-API-Key: YOUR_PERSONAL_ACCESS_TOKEN"

A successful response returns your organizations:

[
  {
    "id": "org_a1b2c3d4e5f6",
    "name": "My Organization"
  }
]

If you receive a 403 error, check that your token is correct and has not expired.
